Al Di Meola: The Complete Boffomundo Interview

[@LisaBellaDonnaMusic]

Great to witness this in it's entirety. Thank you very much posting. Love Al di Meola and his amazing span of music.

[@klextacy]

Great interview! What a gem.

[@tinfoilhatter]

yes! after all these years, al dimeola rocks harder, and is the king of rock as well as jazz, jeff beck never had the rock-nor jazz appeal that al did, not for me, not since about 1979! but i love jeff beck, he's so unique and no less skilled than al, just different... i would like to hear al and steve morse do somethin'...i think that would be the alltime best

[@SATedeschi]

Great footage of a classic interview. Thanks for sharing

[@rcanderson4328]

This is actually a really good interview. Not much of the stereotypical formulaic questions.

[@dangreenwood]

My goodness, this was refreshing. A great conversation. Thank you!

[@zefdin101]

Great interview, thanks! I didn’t like the interviewer at first, but he is actually very good and smart.

[@TheBoffomundoShow]

Thanks! I take some time to get used to..

[@reallg]

This was great thanks for posting!

[@knust2329]

He was right about the music business and his style of music. It still is a niche product.

[@tinfoilhatter]

yeah, music can be bought and sold, but never owned....haha!

[@Rayquesto]

Much better quality!

[@bradford_shaun_murray]

29:02 anyone called that number?

[@Rayquesto]

20:27 It's insane!

[@Dolores5000]

Al!

[@RocknJazzer]

He is only 25 here

[@owenmcgee8496]

From 14:30 onwards it is all about fear, insanity and rock'n'roll

[@Lemopalm]

What is the name of the theme music?

[@TheBoffomundoShow]

The 1974 tune Mescal from Italian band Arti & Mestieri. Look em up.

[@Lemopalm]

@@TheBoffomundoShow Thanks

[@Rayquesto]

23:36 Al sounded like fat albert when he said "bootleg live alpbumshshshshs".

[@houstonharwood7197]

Now it's Apple and Spotify etc defining what albums and tracks are "hot" instead of radio stations.

[@davidkopec9442]

“What’s up with Mary Ford?” Lol

[@chrischoir3594]

What song is that in the intro??

[@Fusionhead]

"Nove Lune Dopo", from the highly recommended "Giro di Valer per Domani" album by Arti & Mestieri.

[@chrischoir3594]

@@Fusionhead thanks

[@chrischoir3594]

thanks so much that is a rare record. so good

[@Fusionhead]

@@chrischoir3594 You're welcome! I'm surprised it's rare. I also would recommend their debut album "Tilt" from a year prior in 1974.

[@lwmson]

The footage proves that DiMeola has had a hair transplant. This footage was - I say circa 1979 - and as yo can see he's starting to bald. But in recent years, he has a head full of hair, and somehow I don't think this would have occurred naturally.

[@tinfoilhatter]

oh balderdash! haha!

[@---wd3hp]

Great to see you following the pattern of his career

[@zelddan]

I noticed that too.

[@chrischoir3594]

rogain? and propecia?

[@geneobrien8907]

Go sit at the children's table!

[@Rayquesto]

23:37

[@reidwhitton6248]

Weird interview. The host seems interested in the music but asks typically stupid questions.

[@geneobrien8907]

Al handled it with grace.

[@nbeutler1134]

and seemed keener on asking said questions then actually listening to Al's answers to them...
